Chapter 23: The first dinner

But if you feel that only vegetables are expensive here, then you are too naive, and Jiang Hai also feels that he is a little naive. When he walked to the fruit area... In addition to vegetables, the price of fruit here is also a bit outrageous.

Watermelon is ninety-nine cents per pound, Mifeng peach is three, orange is about two pounds, and four ninety-nine cents a pound.

Apple costs ninety-nine cents per pound. To be honest, when you see this price, Jiang Hai misses the country a little. This is just a fruit you can pick outside, and the finest ones are even more expensive.

However, it also gave Jiang Hai a glimmer of business opportunities. If his pastures were all used to raise cattle, he could raise 100,000 heads. However, now he only raises 20,000 heads, and changing pastures all year round will not be used for such a large place.

Some of the vacant places can be used to grow fruits and vegetables. He believes that the prices of the things he grows should be higher.

But now, it’s just a look. After a simple walk, everyone started to buy things.

It was agreed to be a treat from Jiang Hai tonight, so naturally he was not vague. The standard beef he bought was the best beef shoulder, with one pound of eight dollars. Jiang Hai bought two hundred pounds. Not only did he have to eat these beef tonight, but he also wanted to eat them in normal times.

Moreover, a manor like him naturally has to provide food and drink to his subordinates, which is inevitable.

Two hundred pounds of beef, ten bags of chicken crutch, ten bags of ten wings, when Jiang Hai wanted to buy fish, he was stopped by Robbins and Edward. There were fish on the beach there. Edward took a fish rod and hung it for half an hour, which was enough for these people to eat at night.

So there is no need to buy this. In addition, there are many other things to eat, such as onions. Americans can't stand the taste of onions, ginger and garlic, but they like the taste of onions. Onions can also be suppressed to suppress the smell of beef, which is also very good.

In addition, there are many lettuce, carrots, celery, eggplant, etc., and the ones I bought are all organic.

Jiang Hai is not a stingy person either. Although he has no money now, he is not short of money on his lips.

For example, in the past, when the elderly saved money from their mouths, they saved money from their mouths, but now Jiang Hai was obviously not something that could be found from their mouths. Instead, let’s spend it. After buying vegetables and meat, Jiang Hai bought a lot of fruits, apples, oranges, and some berries like Canadian blue plums. These berries, two small boxes, only about six taels, are worth three US dollars. It is indeed the price. After calculating all these things, Jiang Hai also spent more than two thousand and one hundred US dollars, but he would not care about these small money. He left a supermarket phone number. In the future, if there are such a large order, they can be asked to deliver the goods.

Then he moved all these things to the car with Edward and Robbins.

Before moving, Edward and Robbins were still saying that they would not let Jiang Hai take action, after all, was Jiang Hai the one who paid for it?

In fact, they were afraid that Jiang Hai would not be able to move, and his face would be gone, but unexpectedly, Jiang Hai would mention it alone and almost caught up with the two of them, which scared the two of them. It looked like Jiang Hai was not as weak as he looked on the surface.

"After buying the food, let's go and make some bar!" After moving the food to Robbins' back seat, Jiang Hai slapped the car door and said to Robbins next to him and Edward in the distance.

"Buy wine? OK, go to Old Tony to move, his bartender." None of the seafarers and cowboys didn't have a good drink. Now when Jiang Hai said he wanted to drink a little wine, the saliva in the mouths began to secrete, and Robbins even said directly.

"Old Tony's wine is really good, so let's go!" Hearing Robbins' words, Edward here also laughed, and then two old and broken pickup trucks came to the Cowboy Song Bar that Jiang Hai had visited last night with a roar.

At this time, the bar was not open yet, and there were only two waiters cleaning there. When they saw the three of them walking in, they were obviously stunned, but they also knew Robbins and Edward.

After expressing the purpose of the visit, I left behind the amount I had to consume in the past few days, and bought all the remaining ones that could be packed for Jiang Hai.

I bought three barrels of homemade beer in total, plus more than twenty bottles of foreign wine. Most of these foreign wines are base sprinkles, brandy, vodka, tequila, ram, and whiskey. They are cheaper among foreign wines, but they are very powerful.

These wines cost only more than 300 US dollars in total. He originally thought they would cost more than 1,000, because he remembered that he had drunk one of them before. It would cost more than 300 yuan per bottle in China, and if it was replaced with a US dollar, it would cost fifty yuan.

But unexpectedly, when the score was settled, the wine was worth twelve US dollars. Well, Jiang Hai felt like he was cheated again...

But there is no way. When he was in China, he didn't have the channel to buy these wines.

After packing the wine, Jiang Hai took his two subordinates and rushed back home.

The next thing to do is to get these foods done.

People in the United States are different from those in China. In China, especially in the Northeast, if you want to show your enthusiasm, you have to cook a lot of dishes. For example, during the Chinese New Year or when you come to your family, you always cook a large table of dishes in the Northeast, and they are both made double and not single. For example, if there are few people, there are six, medium or eight, and there are quite a lot of people, only ten, twelve, sixteen, etc. It doesn’t matter if the rest is left, but you must make more to show your hospitality.

But in the United States, this is not the case. To be honest, it is still very simple for people in the United States to make things. Basically, it is a gathering like this. Because it is a relationship between a cowboy and a fisherman, beef and fish are essential.

The beef is cut into steak-shaped, and it is enough to grill it. The fish is basically just frying. Of course, you can also raise a fire in the yard to grill it yourself. In addition, the sausages, chicken wings and so on that, you can just grill it yourself if you want to eat them. What they have to do is feed the ingredients first, and then wear them with the fiber they bought, that's all.

In addition, there is basically only one way to make vegetables and fruits, salads, which are not greasy and very depressing, and that's all.

So it is very simple to cook in the United States, especially for such dishes. It only takes about an hour. Jiang Hai, Rohous and Edward have already prepared these things. Robbins went to the warehouse and took out some branches that he usually cut down. These trees were dead in the forest. When he was bored when he was patrolling, he would cut down some of them. When making barbecue, it was much better to bake with wood than in the oven.

After getting all these things done, Jiang Hai and his two men took a full-scale car and headed towards the beach.

Now he has prepared beef, chicken wings, chicken crutches, vegetable salads and fruit salads here. As for the staple food, Jiang Hai called to order pizza. When he was in China, Jiang Hai liked to eat this thing, but it was not cheap in China. Before the divorce, he didn't have much spare money to eat these things.

After the divorce, he had spare money, but he really didn't eat much in China. After arriving in the United States, he found that the pizza in the United States was much better than that in China. Of course, it is said that the best pizza is in New York, but the one in Boston is also good.

He bought ten 16-inch large pizza at one time, enough for these people to eat, and now they have to solve the problem of fish.

"Hi, boss, have you ever caught fish before?" As a professional fisherman, Edward has the most fishing rods in his luggage. Fishing rods are also divided into many types, including those suitable for fishing in rivers, those suitable for fishing in ponds, those suitable for fishing in large reservoirs, and of course, there are also sea rods that are fishing in the sea, but sea rods are also divided into many types, such as those used on boats, on reefs, on the beach, and the length, thickness, material, etc. of the fishing rods.

The size of the fish horn, the thickness of the fish line, and even the bait of the fish are all particular. People who are not focused on playing with this thing may not understand it. Edward looked at Jiang Hai's expression of hope in his eyes and couldn't help but ask with a smile.

"I have fished before, but I have only fished by the river, reservoir and fish pond." After scratching my head, Jiang Hai looked at Edward and said a little embarrassedly. He only saw that others had used the sea rod, but he had never used it.

"Oh, boss, freshwater fish are different from seawater fish." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, Edward here had not spoken yet, and Robbins there was already laughing and talking.

"Yes, fishing freshwater fish is always floating fishing, but sea fish is different. Because the sea is too deep, sea fishing is also divided into bottom fishing, boat fishing and play fishing. We don't have this resource now. Floating fishing can only catch fish about one meter deep. Those fish are very small, so we basically use play fishing or bottom fishing." When Edward heard what Robbins said, he smiled and said to Jiang Hai. When they heard what they said so lively, Jiang Hai was also a little moved.

"Fishing requires some skills. For ordinary beginners, fishing on the shore, they are all fishing at the bottom. You can try it first." Seeing Jiang Hai's eager look, Edward here took a fishing rod and handed it to Jiang Hai.

This fishing rod is not like the hand rod used to catch freshwater fish. It is so thin in front. The front of this sea rod is also very thick. A very thick line is tied to the roller below. On the top, there is a large lead sinker and a pair of fish hooks, but it is not as deep as Yupiao. Looking at the equipment in front of him, Jiang Hai's eyes began to shine. He took the fishing rod handed over by Edward. He tried it first. With his current strength, waving these fishing rods is a little bit of a matter of waving them.

Then, I took some small shrimps from Robbins. These shrimps were actually small shrimps, but they were not small at all. This was what Robbins used to copy on the Internet on the beach before, and they were specially used as bait. Jiang Hai felt distressed when he saw them.
